WAYS TO GIVE

Together, we can harness the power of collective giving with more than 50,000 local people raising their hands, opening their hearts, digging in, sharing resources and doing their part to support a thriving region.

LEADERSHIP GIVING NETWORKS

United Way's leadership donors are the most generous, community-minded and influential individuals throughout the Greater Rochester region. Members of Leaders United and the leadership giving networks invest millions of dollars each year to help United Way fund solutions to some of our most critical challenges. They also enjoy benefits of membership with annual events,networking and volunteer opportunities.

United Way hosts and supports seven leadership development programs to infuse and promote diversity and inclusion in local leadership positions, on boards and committees, and in volunteer service positions for local organizations. Now in operation for more than 30 years, our programs strive to ensure that all voices are heard and all people are represented in creating meaningful, lasting change across our community.
